Thomas, one of the elite players at his position in the league, said he was told by the trainers that they wanted him to “mimic’’ what he would normally do in practice to get a sense how much stress his hamstring could take. “He’s the leader of the offensive line,’’ Pugh said of Thomas. “To have a guy like that back will reenergize everybody.
